Tom Delay = Removed! HAHAHAHAA

[AAP]

I guess that despite how he tried in vain to eliminate that House rule that removed him from leadership post, it wasn't enough.

Bye bye political career. He only won by the smallest reelection margin of his career in 2004 and that was with riding on Bush's coattails.

Next target : Frist. Republican't leaders in both Houses are going to take a bullet.

I wonder why they only reported on the 13 most corrupt? There are plenty of other members that are surely corrupt, too.

 

[WODIN]

LOL!

Great stuff.

 

[Lestat]

why was he removed?

 

[BrothaBill]

He was a rightwing whacko, very effective whip keeping people in line, but also seems disturbed mentally

 

[WODIN]

why was he removed?

Campaign financing fraud Indictment in Texas.

Bill Frist will go down as the next Martha Stewart, the informal inquiry by the SEC has been moved up to FORMAL status. Making it a legal issue.

Good for him...let's hope more politicians on both sides of the aisle land in hot water...seeing as how everybody in Washington does this.

 

[spongebob]

texas politics.

 

[gotmilk]

Frist will get a slap on the hand. His sales will be passed off as coincidence. Kind of like how I accidently bought shares of a penny stock that is merging with 19 trillion cubic feet of natural gas.

Delay will shoot porn under the stage name Mandalay

Where do these dudes get their hair cuts done? Mattel factory outlet?

 

[spongebob]

LOL!

Great stuff.

political junkies are like religous fanatics....same level.

 

[AAP]

[bluepeter]

Now now there bro............you and I both know republicans are of the highest moral character. LOL.

Bullets. Preferable nice shiny ones with lots of blood on them.

Sounds good to me.

The vast majority, from both sides of the political spectrum are.

I wonder if he likes big black cock and all of this is just a charade to get him into jail with all those fine dudes so he can have a legit excuse for taking it in the ass?

dude are you drunk again?

 

[Tiervexx]

Wow, a corrupt politician. Shocking.

Seriously...

 

[ziggyziggy]

This is once again, for this prosecutor, going to be a case of overzealousness. Delay will be exonerated, and Texas Democrats will look for their next victim to slander.

I never really liked DeLay, I don't like most politicians, it is a filthy system.

I don't know why Frist even bothers; the dude's family is worth billions.

Once you have so much money - power is the next thing you covet.

Yeah, that's the everyday explanation, Corzine, etc, but I don't care how rich I get, I want ZILCH to do with government.

Money can be aquired without violating the rights of others, power can not. Someone who wants power is unlikly to care to much where their money comes from, but the reverse is simply not always true.

 

[mekannik]

Money can be aquired without violating the rights of others, power can not.

A few people who have/had power without violating the rights of others: Rev. Billy Graham, MLK, Ghandi, Mother Theresa, Lady Diana, John Lennon, Rosa Parks. You can see a pattern here...

Someone who wants power is unlikly to care to much where their money comes from, but the reverse is simply not always true.

Sooooo - someone who wants money is unlikely to care much where their power comes from? Seems to be a pretty truthful statement. Most people just want the money, not the power. I believe you are not considering ego and the effects it has on people's desire for money AND power.


So what exactly is the substance of your post? Or are you limiting the examples to politicians only?

Yep. I'll just work until I have a few airplanes, and then not bother anybody. I have zero desire for power.
